Alex 34718 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Well, I try to be anyway. You can sometime buy in places like Marksies muslin bags with spices in to infuse the wine but that's a nice simple recipe in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jill 0 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Ngakuta Bay Sauvignon Blanc. Not particularly exciting, but it'll do. I miss my wine tasting days though, feel like a bit of a scummer browsing the cheapo section in Morrisons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jill 0 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Wine is lovely, but I can't drink it when I'm out (unless it's sharing a bottle with a meal and very little else). Gets too messy and results in a rotten hangover. It's definitely a drink for me to have at home these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gejon 2 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Logic tells me that a 12% glass of wine is no different to half a pint of 6% beer but my brain says 111""£$$£!Q"!£45521£!!"!"£%6&&**8yGffdc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made the mistake of buying full bottles of wine and bringing them to my seat at a few theatre shows/comedy gigs. Never ends well, too easy to drink quickly.

Never ends well, too easy to drink quickly. I can see how that would swiftly go wrong. I need to have the bottle as far away as possible, i.e. in the fridge, and plenty of distractions like a good TV show or film, so I sip and only top up when I really need to. Being out anywhere and drinking wine just never ends well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 41897 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Having been out in the peeve since 2.30pm this afternoon , I'm proud to say I have made it home intact, titty bars avoided, and relatively compis mentis. I'm now going to the bathroom to do battle with the evil bogroll monster. God help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac-Toon 1 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Just bought a bottle of "Pitu Cachaca" for over the Christmas & as an easy sip once my chemo is finished. With it I'll be making Caipirinha which is; Cachaca Limes Sugar Ice http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caipirinha Looks poncey, it is, but it gets you steaming & slides down a treat.

sammynb 3342 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 fucking hell lol, it's like £2.20 a bottle here If you're willing to pay postage, I bet I can get the 10 pack to you for cheaper than it would cost there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammynb 3342 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Had some of them in Las Iguanas in town. Very nice. The boss's favourite drink here in our house. Sitting in the backyard, 28-30C, Caipirinha in hand can make for a pleasant afternoon. Four of these: Followed by one of these: On a school night no less.

Alex 34718 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Being a fan of Mexican food (or my rough approximation of it anyway), Tequila (proper Tequila) makes for a rather nice aperitif. Drank the proper way, i.e. lime wedge rubbed in the V of your finger and thumb, sprinkled with salt, then lick your hand and down the shot. Repeat as required.

Happy Face 29 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Anyone tried one of those whisky vapourisers Stephen fry was touting on gadget man. £100 seems steep for a novelty but they seemed to like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 34718 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Never even heard of them. What's that aal aboot? I've had a go on Gemmill's vapouriser like (not a euphemism) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 34718 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Bit weird. I'm not convinced of the point of it. Like you say, steep for a novelty. And you could get a lot of bottles of Bailey's for £100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
